Percentages

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I like how some games use "increases by +10%" as percentage points and "increases by 10%" as percentage.
Or how oath of exile does it, with "(base + base * increases by y%) * z% more"
So with a base of 5%, chance increased by 20%, and chance increased by 30%, with a 40% more chance, you'd get:
(5% + 5% x (20% + 30%)) x (1+40%) = 7.5% x 1.4 = 10.5%
